I'll try to make this short. Within a span of 3 months my Mom lost her battle with cancer and my wife left me. Needless to say I was pretty down. Another member, Marines21 is a good friend from back in the day and convinced me to get back into cards after 15 years or so. Fast forward to last night my Dad is finally getting over the heartache of losing his wife and is finally going through the house after a year of her passing. My Dad is a huge Bettis collector and he collected Sanders but, he's been out of cards for awhile. While cleaning I came across a box that said "Football Cards". I open it and was blown away "I said Dad theres over a 100 Sanders inserts in here" and he said "No theres over 200 and you can have them, they're doubles" So here they are, I know they're all from the 90's but, I'm still excited to see whats there. I'm going through them today my hope is to be able to sell and/or trade enough to score a nice Bettis auto or two for him. Sorry for the long story but, thanks for reading.

That's quite a collection!! Sorry for your loss. And no need to apologize for the long story. You'd be surprised at how many people sit up and take notice on this forum!!

Sorry all that has happened to you. That's aweful..... I lost my mom to breast cancer about a year and a half ago... Pretty traumatic experience, but you get through it. Hope you land on your feet soon. Sweet Barry's by the way!

Thanks everyone.

Mcleodfive- sorry to hear about your Mother. It's been almost 13 months to the day since my mom passed. She had pancreatic cancer. Cancer is nasty stuff.

I don't remember my dad having a ton of Sanders so I asked him, he had a trading buddy that I kind of remember that was hit head on by a drunk driver and killed and his wife gave my dad all his Sanders, so the ones he gave me are the ones my dad had.
